"Congratulations to your majesty! Congratulations to your majesty! With this capable minister, we will have peace for a hundred years outside the Great Wall!"
"The story of Fu Yangling's single-handed killing of the traitorous chiefs has spread throughout the Han Dynasty. More than twenty newspapers are discussing this matter. Confucianism said that he was the tiger minister of the time, and Huang Lao said that he was a capable minister of great governance. Even the Legalists admire him highly. With him in charge of the Xia Kingdom, the Han frontier is considered stable!"
Lu Lu grinned, almost crooked in laughter.
Liu Chang sat in front of him very unhappy, with the word "unhappy" almost written on his forehead, "So what, isn't it just to break into a tribe and kill their chief? I can do that too. Ah, I can even chop down the whole tribe from top to bottom."
"Your Majesty, the world praises him not only for his bravery, but also for his strategy. He had shown kindness to these people many times before and gained their friendship. Through such feats, he completely conquered the barbarians. Now he lives in the Yan Dynasty of the Tang Dynasty. Almost all the Hu people outside the Great Wall attached themselves to the Xia Kingdom. Fu Qing sent officials to station in each tribe. Fu Qing discouraged them from fighting with each other and divided them into clear pastoral areas. He did it very fairly and everyone was satisfied with his division. , he has already begun to govern, and this act of slaughtering meat is really contrary to the truth, and it is really the talent of the right prime minister!!"
It can be seen that Lu Lu is really convinced this time. Fu Qing has arranged everything so perfectly. His three consecutive acts of kindness, demonstration, and butchering just hit the target of the big Han scholar-bureaucrats. Feel better.
The three things that the scholars of the Han Dynasty most desired were to be able to educate the barbarians, to show off their power to foreigners, and to be able to butcher meat. However, these three things were completed by one person at the same time. The scholars suddenly had an orgasm and boasted loudly to Fu Qing. Especially, his deeds were repeatedly recounted in newspapers, and there were discussions about him in local places, and his reputation was unparalleled.
Everyone in Chang'an, except the elder, was very happy.
Listening to Lu Lu's compliments, the elder's face became even more ugly.
The doctors were standing not far away, listening to Lu Lu's compliments. Master Fu Yan seemed to realize something, and hurriedly stood up and asked angrily: "Shizhong Lu! Why are you talking nonsense without distinguishing between priorities?!"
Lu Lu was stunned and was about to reprimand, but his master Fu Yan hurriedly said: "As the saying goes, only when there is a wise king can there be capable ministers. For example, if there is no wise king to use them, how can they be called capable? In the end, it is just a wasted death." That’s it, it’s because of a Holy Emperor like Your Majesty that you have such a capable minister as Prime Minister Fu! You’ve been praising Prime Minister Fu’s merits, but you’ve kept silent about His Majesty’s merits. What’s your intention?!”
Lu Lu didn't say anything, but his face looked a little smelly, as if he had eaten a fly while eating delicacies.
When Liu Chang heard this, he was overjoyed. He gently stroked his beard and said, "Okay, I can't say that. Fu Qing still has some abilities. I don't have any merit."
"Your Majesty!! Why are you belittling yourself?! Where there is merit, there is merit! I cannot answer your Majesty's words! I have heard that Fu Qing was a prodigal in Chang'an at first, doing all kinds of evil, and later he gambled for fun, and did not repent and ruined his family name. , he no longer has any property, but Your Majesty helped him and trained him many times to make him capable. If not for Your Majesty, where would he be today? How could he have such merit? "
"If Your Majesty does not admit your merit today, I will die in front of you!!"
The master's father was furious and righteous. If he ignored him and only looked at his face, he would be exactly the same as Zhou Chang.
This move confused Liu Chang. He hesitated and said uncertainly: "I have merit."
Only then did Master Fu Yan retire with satisfaction.
Most of the doctors looked at him with disdain. I have heard of ministers dying to persuade and force the emperor to admit his guilt, but I have never heard of ministers dying to persuade and force the emperor to admit his merits.
There is something good about this young man.
Although Liu Chang didn't like Fu Qing, as a person who must be rewarded for his merits, he still gave Fu Qing an additional town as a reward. Liu Chang had always made clear rewards and punishments. When Fu Qing was the county magistrate, Liu Chang
Although it suppressed him and prevented him from taking a step forward, his salary was always rising. He almost gave the big man an extra county magistrate with two thousand dan. After Liu Chang issued the edict of the reward, he prepared to get up and go to Tai
study.
Today, he will officially take over the position of Taixue's chief minister and become the nominal leader of Taixue. Of course, Liu Chang also strengthened Feng Chang's management of Taixue. From now on, the temple will decide what happens in Taixue.
The calculation will no longer be left to the leaders of the school to take over the management.
Before going to Taixue, Liu Chang had to make sufficient preparations. After only waiting for a moment, Liu Chang's preparations had already arrived at Liu Chang's side.
"His Majesty."
Uncle Fu Qiu stood aside with a smile. This old man was wearing very loose Chu-style clothes, and he really looked like an immortal. No wonder later generations would write him as an immortal. Sometimes Liu Chang
I wonder if Xunzi's lineage has any special skills that can extend life. Xunzi lived a long life, and his disciples lived a long time unless they died unexpectedly. Fu Qiubo is now in the "Royal Library of the Han Dynasty".
I sorted out books and stuff, and spent the whole day quite leisurely. Reading books and writing articles made my life enjoyable.
Liu Chang would usually not disturb him. Only when he needed knowledge, would he call him out and ask him to follow him, because Liu Chang's knowledge was too superb.
It is difficult for people with their cultural level to understand.
"Mr. Fuqiu doesn't have any new articles in the near future."
Liu Chang asked with a smile, it's not that the elder likes articles so much, it's mainly that Fu Qiubo's articles often praise him.
Fu Qiube replied: "I am writing a book these days. If your Majesty misses my articles, I will write a few after I return."
"Haha, writing a book is a big deal. It doesn't matter. Just finish writing the book first."
When Liu Chang led Fu Qiu Bo to Taixue, Liu An had already arranged everything. Liu Chang didn't even need to do anything more, just show up. This Zhuzi's ability to do things was getting better and better.
The more he made progress, after the ceremony, Liu Chang summoned everyone from various factions to discuss the future development plan of Taixue. Many famous people all over the world got up, talked loudly, and talked about their own ideas.
In fact, there is nothing useful, it is just to show one's cultural level, and it can be regarded as part of the ceremony.
Today's Taixue is very large, with more than 50,000 students studying there. Liu Chang directly turned this official preparation place into an academic research center.
Empress Lu originally envisioned Taixue as a place to train officials, but now Taixue is more like Jixia Academy, a place for cultural exchanges and contention among hundreds of schools of thought.
Of course, there are indeed many officials who came out of here, and advanced ideas have also emerged one after another. Among the many ideas that Liu An relied on for his previous large-scale innovations, many were born in Taixue, and many of them will soon be discontinued.
Schools of thought have been reborn in Taixue. They have recovered lost ancient books. Although they are not up to the original level of a hundred schools of thought, at least there is no need to worry that these things will be lost. The academic atmosphere in Taixue is very strong.
, in front of Liu Chang, everyone did not forget to refute and question each other.
Fu Qiu Bo gently stroked his beard and said with a smile: "From here, you can see the prosperity of the Han Dynasty's literary style. The writers practice the fundamental method. This is all the merits of Your Majesty."
Liu Chang laughed.
When Liu Chang, Fu Qiu Bo and others were preparing to leave together, someone suddenly jumped out from the side and immediately knelt down in front of Liu Chang before the soldiers could catch him.
"Your Majesty!! Students have a performance!!"
Liu Chang roughly pushed away the soldier standing in front of him and walked up a few steps, only to see a young junior student kneeling in the middle of the road.
The atmosphere became tense, everyone around them looked a little ugly, and the students suddenly fell silent.
The original lively atmosphere suddenly disappeared.
Liu Chang looked at the young man in front of him. He was not very tall, but a little thin, with dark skin. He didn't look like he belonged to a rich family. "Get up. Stand over."
The young junior stood up quickly and walked to Liu Chang's side with his head lowered.
"What's your business?"
Wang Gao, who was not far away, suddenly frowned and stepped forward to explain: "Your Majesty, please don't argue."
"Have I asked you?"
Liu Chang turned his head sideways, and his cold eyes made Wang Gao speechless. He lowered his head and stopped persuading.
"Your Majesty, the students have a grievance!"
The young man's eyes were red, and his whole body was trembling with excessive excitement. "On the seventh day of last month, my classmate, a high school student, was murdered in Taixue, but no one intervened. The student asked Your Majesty to make the decision!!"
At that moment, all the Tai students were in an uproar, and the expressions of several people around them changed drastically. Wang Gao cursed angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about? The high school student committed suicide, how can you say it was murder? You are unreasonable, you
."
Before Wang Gao finished speaking, he felt something pulling him and he flew up.
But it was Liu Chang who grabbed his sleeve and pulled him in front of him. Wang Gao jumped into the air like a broken sack and flew to Liu Chang's side. He staggered and was almost thrown to the ground. Liu Chang died.
She grabbed him to keep him from falling, "If you dare to talk to me again, I will kill you right now!"
Wang Gao's face turned red. He was not afraid in front of so many people and cursed: "Your Majesty, now"
"Come here!! Capture this guy!!"
Liu An spoke first, and the soldiers directly pushed Wang Gao to the ground, gagged his mouth, and took him away.
Liu Chang looked at Wang Gao who was being taken away faintly, and then glanced at Liu An, who shook his head gently.
Liu Chang understood what he meant. Even if he wanted to kill him, he couldn't kill him here. Liu Chang looked at the young junior in front of him again and said, "Speak clearly in front of everyone."
The young man slowly talked about what happened. He and the high school student were from the same hometown. They were both children of ordinary people. One was the son of a farmer and the other was the son of a carpenter. Because of his outstanding academic performance when he was young, he entered the university.
Continuing studies in Chinese studies. When Liu An was in power, Liu An expanded the proportion of poor students in Taixue to prevent Taixue from becoming a gilded place for aristocratic children. He also opened a new reward project called "Qinsheng". The main targets are
Those who come from poor families but can study diligently can be specially recruited into Imperial College.
Just like Empress Lu's power, filial piety and integrity.
This move added a lot of poor students to Taixue. Liu Chang also admitted that Liu An did a good job in this matter. However, this aggravated a certain contradiction in Taixue. Originally, all the students in Taixue were poor students.
The most unlucky among the nobles are their poor families, but these people who did not have surnames more than a hundred years ago came to Taixue, so they were inevitably humiliated. They worked harder than the children of the nobles, which even aroused the jealousy of the children of the nobles. The high school students
Because the article was so well written, it outshone many of his peers, causing dissatisfaction among the nobles' children.
As a result, they began to think of ways to humiliate the carpenter's son, not allowing anyone to make friends with him, or even allowing others to talk to him. Because of the Taixue's regulations, they did not take action, but even the verbal humiliation could not be tolerated.
Enough to kill someone.
After months of humiliation, the imperial student finally couldn't bear it anymore and chose to end his life.
The young man burst into tears. As a fellow countryman, he did not even dare to talk to Gao Sheng because of the instigation of those people. However, since Gao Sheng passed away, he could dream of this fellow countryman every time he dreamed. This made him regret even more.
I felt extremely guilty, and immediately decided to seek justice for my fellow villagers.
It's just that Chang'an is the Chang'an of the wealthy family, and Taixue is the Imperial College of the wealthy family.
He walked around but couldn't find anyone to make a decision for him. He went to Tingwei. Although Tingwei opened a case, because the man committed suicide, there was no law and no evidence to support their arrest. He went to Wang
Gao, while Wang Gao believed that this matter had nothing to do with Taixue, but a personal grudge, and that he should go to Tingwei. He went to find someone from Fan City, but he could not see this superior actual manager at all.
Taking advantage of the emperor's visit to Taixue today, he finally plucked up the courage and jumped out.
Hearing this person's words, Liu Chang's eyes flashed with a cold light.
The students around were also full of anger at this moment, and they all spoke uprightly. Of course, there were also many people who looked frightened and at a loss.
Liu Chang had a straight face and didn't speak for a long time.
On the contrary, it was Liu An, whose eyes were filled with uncertainty. What these people did was just a slap in the face of the prince. The prince gave people gifts and asked them to come to Taixue to study, but you were forced to death by the back foot. He was stunned.
A good government turned into a bad government. At this moment, Liu An looked at the Tai students in the crowd, his expression was extremely ugly.
Liu Chang asked calmly: "Where are the people from Fan City?"
"I'm here!!"
The people from Fan City hurriedly walked out from the side, with sweat on their foreheads, and saluted Liu Chang respectfully.
Liu Chang suddenly flew up and kicked Fan Shiren in the chest. Fan Shiren groaned and flew out, lying on the ground, clutching his chest in pain.
"I asked you to govern the Imperial Academy. Is this how you manage it?"
"I am guilty. I am guilty."
People in Fan City felt it was hard to breathe for a while.
Liu Chang searched the crowd and saw the frightened man, who was the culprit in the young man's mouth. Before Liu Chang could speak, the man knelt down with tears streaming down his face, "Uncle.
!!Spare my life! Uncle!!”
The culprit was named Zhang Chi. He was Zhang Ao's son. The children of Liu's eldest sister's family were only born to concubines and were not legitimate children.
At this moment, Zhang Chi was trembling with fear from Liu Chang and kept crying and begging for mercy.
"You look down on these poor people, don't you? What qualifications do you have to look down on?!"
"My father is just a pavilion chief, your eldest father is just a ranger, and you. Your father is just a butcher!!"
"Because of their contributions, you are now rich and noble. Instead of thinking about making achievements, you start to despise these people who are also born in poverty? Princes, generals, and prime ministers would rather be rich?!"
Liu Chang's question was like a tiger roaring in the forest. Even the imperial students who were discussing just now were extremely quiet at the moment and did not dare to speak.
"Take these two people down, interrogate them, and capture all their accomplices!"
Liu Chang gave the order and then looked at Liu An, "You are here to sit in charge. If the interrogator dares to show favoritism because of personal affairs, you can execute him. If someone relies on his own identity to rescue them, you can also execute him."
"only!!!"
Liu Chang walked out of here quickly, and several others hurriedly followed him.
"Your Majesty, this matter cannot be handled like this. In the final analysis, the man committed suicide. No one has ever beaten him. There is no law in the Han Dynasty that stipulates that those who curse will be executed."
"Insulting and insulting someone to death will be punished as murder!"
"Okay, now we have this law, how about it?"
Liu Chang asked.
Everyone was speechless, and someone else said: "Your Majesty, this matter cannot be solved by just dealing with a few people. Speaking of which, His Highness recruited too many diligent students, which caused such a thing."
"Hahaha, An, did you hear that? This person said you are the culprit!"
Liu An's face was grim, and he pointed directly at the man, "Take this guy down together!"
Everyone did not dare to speak anymore and looked at Liu Chang in fear.
When Liu Chang drove away from here, Fu Qiu Bo looked a little sad, lowered his head and said nothing. Lu Lu also understood that his Majesty was not in a good mood, so he said: "Your Majesty, although the words of that guy just now were bad,
, But you are right. This matter cannot be changed by just dealing with a few people. Their fight is not just because of contempt for those born in poverty, nor is it so-called jealousy. It is mainly a struggle for interests. Most of these poor students harbor
Talent does not rely on family status like others, and those powerful people are afraid that they will rob them of their own interests."
"so what?"
"Your Majesty might as well set up another school to accommodate these poor students. The two schools will stand side by side, which will help competition and ease conflicts."
Liu Chang suddenly laughed.
"What a great idea."
"Someone is being bullied, so the bullied person should be kicked out so that they will not be bullied, right?"
"Nai Gong wants to drive out all the worms in the Imperial College! Inspect the Imperial College, conduct a unified assessment of the Imperial College students, and fire all those who do not meet the standards! Regardless of their status, in the future Imperial College, only those with sufficient talents will be recruited.
People, no matter their origin!!”
"If someone must get out, let those bullies get out!!"
